Officer Quarters Introduction
- Scenic Spot Introduction - The School Officer Quarters are a group of officer dormitories established by the Japanese during the colonial period in Keelung. Walking into the quarters feels like stepping back in time, with wooden buildings and wooden doors and windows that preserve traces of history. A slow stroll among them offers a gentle nostalgia for the past, making it a perfect spot to slow down and truly appreciate the charm of old Keelung. - Scenic Spot Features - This is one of the few remaining groups of command officers’ residences, with nearly a hundred years of history. The buildings are designed as traditional Japanese wooden dormitories, which take into account Keelung's rainy climate with elevated floors, deep eaves, and large drainage ditches, showcasing the ingenuity of life during that time. Despite having undergone renovations and changes after the war, they still preserve traditional Japanese architectural layouts, such as reception rooms and tatami rooms, allowing visitors to glimpse the appearance of Keelung during the Japanese occupation, making it well worth a visit and careful exploration. - Recommended Nearby - After visiting the School Officer Quarters, you might want to take a stroll to the nearby Shawan Historical and Cultural Park to learn about the historical culture and human landscape of East Keelung.
